Damn. I didn’t know he had it in him. When I opened up the CJ this morning, there it was, staring back at me with its menacing scowl. A loaded gun ready to take aim directly at Lexington.

The target?

UK head coach John Calipari

Now, we’re not ones to typically dedicate an entire post to something that comes from the CJ, but this is worth its weight in gold. Rick Bozich of all people, drops the hammer on Calipari and says that the reason for his constant barbs directed towards Louisville and its head coach Rick Pitino, are predicated solely on envy. Here’s a quick snippet of my favorite lines:

“Actually, what makes this unique is if Calipari devoted as much time to solving a 1-3-1 zone as he does to taking shots at Pitino and U of L, he’d be able to discuss something that registers beyond the whole state, like a national championship. Pitino has one, as well as five appearances in the Final Four — none of which has been scrubbed from the NCAA record book.”

I read that article, thought it was pretty funny. I am sure UK fans will stew on it and eventually come up with something to say about it…likely some jab about karen sypher or some other widely overused unintelligent attempt at a put down.
